No one said marriage was Architecture, but I know a door Your anger shut mildly And did not wake a child.

"To arrive at the pulp means / a willful tear at the rind. / and once there? // perhaps stones, perhaps sugar."

When I saw two of Mookie Katigbak-Lacuesta’s poetry collections combined into one book at the Philippine Book Festival, I had to pick it up. Before this, I only saw a poem or two of hers on the Internet: one of which is “A Crust of Bread, and Such—” which I remember liking very much when I read it about two or three years ago.

Needless to say, I was more interested in her collection "Hush Harbor," which revolves around different themes like a lover's longing, desire, and colonization. And while true that it has some stunning lines, overall, I liked it less. I find the voice in this collection distant, making it harder for me to connect. The poems I found were too manicured, the metaphors masking instead of revealing the true emotions behind each piece.

I connected more with Burning Houses, which she called her "weird child" in the signed and dedicated copy I own. BH has a lot of domestic poems in it, which I can sense was deeply personal. I saw glimpses of her childhood, adolescence, and home life in this collection. One can almost see Mookie peeling away layers of memories and revealing to the reader whatever she finds—perhaps stone, perhaps sugar.

In both collections, I loved it best when Mookie was in conversation with different authors and works. Perhaps it's just me and my love of intertextuality. Still, her ideas as she conversed with other voices were interesting, sometimes even visceral.

Looking at Goodreads average rating on the two collections, I am not alone in my partiality towards Burning Houses. I hope she'll embrace this "weirdness" in her next collections. Because it's what makes me connect to her works more. It takes a lot to be vulnerable, but poems should reveal us, not conceal us.

I love your svt x poems! I’m a newbie to poetry and would love to get more recommendations of poetry. Can you recommend me few?

anon i need to feel alive in between writing thesis so im typing this during my pomodoro breaks

here are some of my favorite poems, off the top of my head, not including the ones already in svt x poetry (a lot of what is in svt x poetry are poems ive bookmarked! esp the food poems one)

[the prophet by gibran kahlil gibran is a collection of prose poetry! dont personally consider myself religious but highly recommend]

more yapping under the cut

some of my favorite (modern) poets include (again off the top of my head) louise gluck, mary oliver, warsan shire, ocean vuong, noor hindi, chen chen, and li-young lee—im sure ill regret not including more but yeah :') for local poets in ph, so far i've mostly read from mookie lacuesta, martin villanueva, and mikael de lara co

if you'd like to expose yourself to more poems in general, read a little poetry on twitter consistently shares wonderful poems! accounts like words with love also post excerpts, some from poetry. if you're more an instagram person, read a little poetry is also on there, i believe—and grieftolight has a lot of good ones. if you follow poets, they also share their own work + works they like! joseph fasano is pretty known for that, but i also like seeing chen chen's posts

Haro, Spain (No. 2)

During the Roman rule of Hispania, a fort called Castrum Bibilium was built in the cliffs of Bibilio. The first mention of Haro dates back to the year 1040, in a document of king García Sánchez III of Navarre"el de Nájera". Alfonso VI of León and Castile entrusted the tenencia to Diego López I de Haro after the death of Count García Ordóñez and the first of the lords of Biscay to attach the name of this town to his patronymic was Diego's son, Lope Díaz I de Haro.

Since the early 19th century Haro has established a worldwide reputation for being the most important wine town in the Rioja wine region and remains so today even though the number of Bodegas in the region have multiplied 8 times to 574 during the past 50 years (1970 to 2020). 

The key focus of this reputation is at the Barrio Estación where 7 of the best Rioja Bodegas are located - namely Bodegas Bilbainas (founded 1859); Compañia Vinícola del Norte de España [CVNE] f.1879; R. López de Heredia (f 1877); Bodegas Roda (f 1989); Bodegas Muga (f.1932); Bodegas La Rioja Alta S.A. (f.1890). 

In other parts of the town are Bodegas Martnez Lacuesta (f.1873); Bodega Berceo (f.1801); Carlos Serres (f.1896) and Ramon Bilbao (f.1924). Féderico Paaternina was founded in 1897 and became a very influential name in the wine business in Spain until its final collapse in 2010 when the Bodega closed and the brand of Banda Azul was sold to Berberana following a very difficult period after the appropriation of their owners Rumasa in 1983 by the new Spanish Government and the failure of the subsequent owner to keep the company as a going concern.

Because there’s nothing I love more than my hunger That I carry with me like a world/ all desire/ Buried in my bones like shrapnel./ When your eyes Marry mine by the light of a jukebox/ like a call Connecting for one glowing moment,/ It has a certain wherewithal./ It leaves an empty streetcar Taking me to the next town/ and the next town/ and the next.

from “Ode to Blanche Dubois,” The Proxy Eros by Mookie Katigbak Lacuesta (Anvil Publishing, 2008)
